- This is one of the dirtiest beaches in the entire world.

And we’re gonna pick up every single piece of trash

on this beach.

Starting with this water bottle.

One out of millions of pieces of trash.

• We did it!

• This will take forever.

[upbeat island music]

• Bottle me up, baby.

I’m hungry for your plastic.

• As you can see, this is taking forever.

Oscar, come on in.

This is Oscar, professional beach cleaner.

Is this basically how you guys clean beaches?

• Mainly, we do the big stuff first

and then we bring a lot of people with sifters as well

for the small stuff.

• You scoop it into this thing

and then shake out the sand,

and you got a bunch of trash.

This right here is the first bag of trash.

Hundreds more to go. How do we do this quicker?

• We just need more people.

• That seems simple. Can you clap for me?

[Oscar clapping]

There you go! All the volunteers.

(crowd cheering)

• Okay guys, we’re gonna clean this up using the vice.

We’re gonna clean this up. Groups of four!

Groups of four in this area.

• Part of me wanted to see if me and the boys

could clean up this beach by ourselves,

and the other part of me realizes

that would’ve taken a year.

• I could’ve told you that.

• Jimmy!

• [Jimmy] Yeah?

The ocean’s putting more trash on the beach.

There’s so much underwear in the ocean.

• I’m enacting a new law.

Thou shall not throw your underwear in the ocean.

• Wait, did you guys already fill up a bag?

• Yeah.

• You guys are better than us.

They are professionals to be fair.

(upbeat music)

• After 12 hours of cleanup,

this is what we managed to achieve, which isn’t enough.

Boys, bring it in.

Tomorrow, I’m gonna bring in 10 times the volunteers.

Tomorrow.

(record scratching)

(flip-flop squeaks)

• Tomorrow.

• It’s now the next day.

(crowd cheers)

(upbeat music)

• I’m helping.

• Nah, nah, nah.

• But as slowly as possible.

• Who’s more bueno? Mark Rober or MrBeast?

• MrBeast.

(piano music)

• Make sure you watch until the end of the video

to find out how we’re gonna pick up

30 million pounds of trash.

• Thank you for coming to our country

and help us with this initiative.

That is really awesome.

(upbeat music)

• Right here. Right there.

Stop. He’s not stopping.

I’m gonna move.

In this bad boy is 6,000 pounds of trash.

And now we have 36,000 pounds of trash,

which weighs the same as 3,000 cats or three T-rexes.

Whichever you prefer.

While I was talking with some of the locals,

they mentioned that there’s a beach down the street

that was also very dirty.

So I said Nolan with a bunch of volunteers

to go clean that beach as well.

There’s a whole car bumper right here.

• There’s a car bumper here? Did this come outta the ocean?

• People litter weird things.

• What type of trash have you seen along the beach?

• Most importantly, most commonly is plastics.

And we see that in every form on the beach here.

• They ended up removing 12,000 pounds of trash,

which brought us up to a total

of 50,000 pounds of trash from just two beaches.

• Check out this power move. Watch this.

Look at that!

• Is that how you want us to dump it?

• Yeah, dude, I’m taking one for the team.

I’m a team player.

Oh yeah. I don’t even have to look.

• There you go, Mark.

• It actually kind of works.

• See?

• And if you guys look over there,

we’re actually getting close to the end of the beach.

This is what the beach looked

like at the start of the video.

And this is what it looks like with like 20% left.

We’re getting there.

• We’re doing it!

• Unfortunately, between the ocean washing up trash

to the beach and rivers bringing in new trash from

the mainland, obviously this beach is gonna get dirty again.

But with your guys’ help, we can stop a much bigger issue.

• We’re almost done, Jimmy.

• I know! Four straight days of picking up trash.

And just like that, we removed over 60,000 pounds of trash

from the world’s dirtiest beach.

And even though this 60,000 pounds of trash we picked up

might seem impressive,

there is sadly way too much trash still in the ocean.

Two years ago, we crushed our goals with Team Trees

and planted 20 million trees.

• And now it’s time to do it again.

• Which is why we, along with hundreds of other creators,

are launching Team Seas.

And for every $1 you guys donate, like this,

one less pound of trash will be in the ocean.

• But what if I wanted to donate $10, Jimmy?

• I conveniently have 10 pounds of trash right here

that is now out of the ocean.

• Boom. Gone.

• You get the point.

One dollar donated as one less pound of trash in the ocean.

And I’d like to personally thank YouTube Originals

for supporting Team Seas and helping us fund it.

They’re gonna be matching the first $400,000

worth of donations, dollar for dollar.

And we wanna remove 30 million pounds

of trash from the ocean.

• Which is just so freaking audacious.

This only happens if we all work together.

• Half the money we raise is going towards

funding volunteer beach cleanups like we did here today,

all across the world, as well as literally

fishing trash out of the ocean.

• And the other half will be used for these

trash-eating robots that pick up trash 24 hours a day,

365 days a year, from rivers that flow to the ocean.

• Go to teamseas.org or click the donate button

below this video right now.

$1 equals one less pound of trash in the ocean.

Making real change like this isn’t gonna be easy.

Go donate right now and help us remove 30 million pounds

of trash from the ocean before the end of the year.

Let’s show the world that we want a clean ocean.

(soulful music)

• What are you doing?

Get outta here. Go donate. (bell dinging multiple times)
